Guiding Light

Guiding Light

A Poem by Travis Prino

I sit alone and watch the days go by

up in my room I just wonder why

please tell me now what can I do?

cause I would do anything for you

I'm living in my own personal hell

feels like I'm stuck living in a cell


can you do me a favor?

can you stay with me tonight?

give me something to savor

won't you be my guiding light?


you're running through my head all day long

but from your mind lately I've been gone

now tell me where did all your love go?

I love you, but I'm feeling so low

cause you don't love me anymore

and I am left here feeling insecure


can you do me a favor?

can you stay with me tonight?

give me something to savor

won't you be my guiding light?


all that's left now is my broken heart

I think of you and wish to go back to the start

now you're telling me that we're just friends

at this time the love between us ends

though my chances may seem real slim

I'll keep trying even if I can't win


can you do me a favor?

can you stay with me tonight?

give me something to savor

won't you be my guiding light?


you know that I love you

and even if you say that I won't do

that is something that will not change

I know the feelings that you're feeling are strange

maybe in time we will be together

and if so, maybe then it'll be forever


can you do me a favor?

can you stay with me tonight?

give me something to savor

won't you be my guiding light?

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
